Why didn’t the wood rot or eventually absorb water and allow water to enter the boat?
In: 9
One thing I have not seen mentioned is caulking the boats. Wooden boat boards are beveled along the edge so a cotton strip is pushed into the gap created by the bevels. This will swell when wet and helps keep water from coming in through the gaps between boards. Along with the resins etc. that others have mentioned.
